A recording important to me
Mar. 15th, 2006 06:28 pmSoft Cell's _This Last Night in Sodom_.
1984. Squalor and desperation as driving, rocking, tunes. Shows everything that Marc Almond could ever achieve, and I think it's done it best here (it also shows how it was becoming all about Marc Almond and little about Dave Ball.)
Out of print.
"I'm so sick in my spare time
humoring thugs
we could go out to dinner
but we're always on drugs"
"OK so it's ham
but she means every word
in a 10 minute ballad of
despair and blood
with one hand to the bosom
paid for by the ballad
but somewhere in there is
a deep
love for love"
